Answer: The picture's dimensions will be 10"x15".

Step-by-step explanation:

Length:   4      2     10

Width:     6      3     15


You can tell because 15 isn't divisible by 6, but it is divisible by 3, which goes into 6.


Divide 6 by 2.

6/2=3

To keep the ratio, we must also divide 4 by 2.

4/2=2

Then, multiply 3 by 5 for the width.

3*5=15

You must also multiply 2 by 5 to get the length.

2*5=10

The picture's dimensions will be 10"x15".

Eight year-old Alex is learning to ride a
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The age of the horse, in human years, when Alex was born can be determined by simply deducting the Current age of Alex from the Current age of the horse in human years.

Therefore, the age of the horse, in human years, when Alex was born was 42 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Current age of Alex = 8

Current age of the horse in human years = 50

Since the age of the horse is already stated in human years, it implies there is no need to convert the age of the horse again.

Therefore, since Alex is a human who was born 8 years ago, the age of the horse, in human years, when Alex was born can be determined by simply deducting the Current age of Alex from the Current age of the horse in human years as follows:

The age of the horse, in human years, when Alex was born = 50 - 8 = 42

Therefore, the age of the horse, in human years, when Alex was born was 42 years.

This can be presented in a table as follows:

                               Age of Alex        Age of the Horse (in human years)

Eight years ago              0                                           42

Current age                    8                                           50

Answer plz !! Whats the contrapositive ?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

It should be the first answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first answer says "If Nemo is a fish, then he swims". That makes sense. Then the second one says "If Nemo does swim, then he is a fish". That would make sense, but if my name was Nemo, I can swim. That doesn't mean I'm a fish. The the third one says "If Nemo is not a fish, then he doesn't swim". That doesn't make sense. Say my name is Nemo. I'm not a fish. I can swim though!

Brainliest and points! HELP ABOUT MEAN EASY!!
Luden [163]
To work it out:
(20200 + 14500 + 18800 + 9300 + 2200) divide by the number of regions, in this case 5.
The answer is 13000 which is A

Basically the mean is adding all the numbers divided by the amount of numbers you added. So in this case adding the data of the 5 regions divided by 5.

Hope to have helped :)

It costs $107 for 10 students and $137 for 15 students. How much does it cost for 12 students?

\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}

% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}}{\stackrel{run}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}}\implies \cfrac{137-107}{15-10}\implies \cfrac{30}{5}\implies \cfrac{6}{1}\implies 6
